| Awesome news. I was expecting them for a bit actually. I'm not reading the novel, but the manga (which I'm reading) seems to be following it quite close, while being one of my favorites. Hopefully it's going to get animated by J.C. Staff or Madhouse... |
| Why Madhouse? Such a stuff is more fitting for Feel or AIC |
 |
| Seems good. |

rpapo said: (3) At least there's a translation on Baka-Tsuki - Only because I started working on it the minute the first volume was in my hands, a week after it was first published. A bit of a gamble on my part, though: translating something without any idea as to how good the story would be. The gamble was on the strength of Toradora, frankly. Everybody else had other things more immediately interesting for them to work on than something that was, essentially, an unknown quantity. Thanks for your efforts to translate the light novel series. I for one have really appreciated it!!! As to those that have said that it's a typical 'amnesia' storyline, well for me I think the novels have handled it really well and very much in a non-trope way. |
 |
| Doesn't sound too interesting, but seeins as it's from the author of toradora I guess I'll check it out. |
 |
| might watch this one |
| I'm in for some "decent-at-worst" romance. |
| Author of the Toradora LN does the LN for Golden Time? I'm in! :D |

motrya said: Oh, G-d! Yet another love tingle show? Why, G-d, why? We already know how it ends, so why? Really? You know how it ends? I have read all of the available translated light novel and I have no clue yet. I assume, based on the cover art, but I am not certain my choice is correct yet. If you haven't read Takemiya's earlier light novel (or the manga version of it, which is what I read) Watashitachi no Tamura-kun, you may not appreciate how well a love triangle can be written in terms of it being entirely uncertain which of the girls is the hypotenuse. In addition, Golden Time is not really a triangle, it is a polygon of some sort, perhaps a kite... I absolutely love this story! I agree with the general consensus that the light novels are superior in mood and story-line. (In particular, the introduction of For the large number of tropes that the characters seem to be designed based on (Amnesia boy, delusional childhood fiancee, genki girl, etc...) the characters are actually very fresh and non-prototypical. I don't recall ever reading a story about an amnesiac who All in all, the story is well written and a load of fun at this point. I look forward to the anime greatly! |

rpapo said: I only have seven pages left to translate in the second volume, and I've transcribed three of those, yet I still don't know how, exactly, the last word in the book connects to where the story is right this instant. It has been a bit of a roller coaster, to be sure. That, and the publisher's teasers for each of the later volumes could lead one to believe that the roller coaster continues, sometimes quite violently. I have five main volumes of Golden Time plus the Gaiden and Bangai volumes. Still reading them. |
rpapo said: hpulley said: I have five main volumes of Golden Time plus the Gaiden and Bangai volumes. Still reading them. As do I, though I cannot say I have read them. My Japanese skills aren't up to casual reading yet. Translation is work. That's what I get for not having started studying the language until I was fifty years old. I started learning seriously seven years ago. I can finally read casually without a dictionary which is much more enjoyable than translation which is work as you say. Translation takes five to ten times as long but does enhance comprehension for sure. If you ever want to bounce ideas off me, just drop me a line. Should starts a novel discussion thread... |
| Not surprised. Might give it a try. |
| Whoa, just when I startet to read the manga some time ago I just thought: ''This definitely needs an animation.'' - My prayer and that of many other was heard! Can't wait for it. |
| Too lazy to actually write something. Wait.. I did. Damn |
| Read the light novel up to volume 3! At first I had my doubts but when I finished volume 2 it was the best! You guys will not be dissapointed in the story. Most likely the animation will be adapted the same way on how the LN is atm. |
Hahalollawl said: Sounds interesting, but which guy is the main character, the one with the lost memories? I'm assuming that would be Banri Tada, with the lost memories. Anyways, I'm looking forward to this. I haven't read the LN yet so I'm not quite sure how this will be adapted. I have kept up with the manga though and been enjoying it. |

| To air this fall Key Visual  |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Kouko looks so different from the LN. There's something wrong with the face and the body proportions. And no studio announced yet? Judging from the art, I'd guess it'll either be JC Staff or Brain Base. |
 |
| Also premiere this Fall so in a few months. Should be fun. I might give the LN a shot in the future and see how it compares. |
|
| Wow, that was quick. J.C Staff? I guess that's fine... |
HauntingShock said: Wow, that was quick. J.C Staff? I guess that's fine... Haven't been confirmed yet I think but might be. |

| Can't wait to watch this in the fall. |

| Knew it was going to be Fall. The art does look really different. The LN is decent so far although not much has been translated. Will definitely watch this. |

| I read a little of the manga a short while back and really enjoyed it, so I'm happy to see it's getting an anime adaption. And since JC Staff did such a good job with Toradora, I have faith they'll do the same with Golden Time. I especially hope it does well enough that they'll consider doing a Evergreen adaption as well sometime. |

| Welp, JC STAFF....time to avoid like hell, even though I already had doubts on watching this due to plot synopsis that sounded quite sexist. |
 |
| ^ Its the better staff of the studio, director of Sakurasou higurashi and the script writer wrote the scripts for Clannad After Story and Kokoro Connect. Not sakurasou my bad. They looked the same. |

| 1st PV |
| The ladies aren't to my taste, I'll respectfully pass on this. |
 |
| The PV looks a bit more appealing than the key visual released earlier. Kayano Ai and Kido Ibuki are really popular these days... |

symbv said: It really does. Pleasantly so I might say.The PV looks a bit more appealing than the key visual released earlier. So, J.C. Staff confirmed. Very interesting (and expected?). Getting some high expectations over it now (that previous image turned me off to be honest...). |
